AI safety drama: risk research called a 'company effort,' team lead responds

AI safety researcher Juan Andres escalated a dispute over early-glimpse risk research, saying pushing this 'unsubstantiated narrative' to the detriment of the security industry 'appears to be a company effort' — though his mockery wasn't aimed at the authors. It started when Chris Rohlf told him to attack arguments and data, not people.

A risk-research team lead (logangraham) then responded, noting the team has published early-glimpse risk research for years to help the public prepare for advanced model capabilities in cyber and other domains, and asked what 'company effort' Juan perceives.
